Today we decided to go on a nice hike-it ended up being 6 miles in 4 hours. |
It was a beautiful day, so we decided to take our little Chiquita with us. Since we had just got back from our cruise we did not want to leave her again. |
The trails are nicely manicured with soft dirt so it makes it easy to walk. |
I tried to get Chiquita to take a drink in the stream, but I don't think she understood that concept. |
The higher up we got the trail got more rocky and steep, so Bill and I took turns carrying Chiquita in our back pack. |
We could not believe there was snow in some spots. We had to be careful it was very slippery . |
It seemed to take forever to reach the falls. So we sat and took about a 20 minute break. |
On the trail there were a lot of dogs hiking with their owners. Chiquita was pretty social but still liked to be left alone by the other dogs who always wanted to sniff her. |
There were dogs everywhere, sniffing each other and barking, climbing and running everywhere. |
We had fun watching how the dogs all interacted with each other. Chiquita sat on our laps and when a dog would pass us, she would start to bark. |

Here I am running down the slope. There are a lot of runners and bikers on the trails. |
